The story is divided into two parts. Here Mrs. Xue asked Mr. Wan to go to the Lin family to ask for help, and the empty-mouthed one had to promise some benefits first and then talk about others.She also knew that there was nothing wrong with a scholarly family and she looked down on merchants like herself. She only hoped that Lin Ruhai's eyesight could pick a big one out of a bunch of dwarfs.I have been waiting anxiously at home since early in the morning. I wanted to send someone to ask questions but I was afraid that I would make a joke of the Lin family. I waited until the afternoon to hear that Mr. Wan had brought a servant back. Your Excellency accepted the request, and Guanbao asked Xue's family to marry a daughter-in-law with all four corners.She finally let go of half of her mind and sent her mother-in-law to double the amount of food, cloth, medicinal materials and Mrs. Wan, so that she was able to sit down and think about her daughter's marriage.

As the old saying goes, women here are debts. When they were young, they worried about food, clothing and education, but when they grow up, they have to work hard to get married.Although Mrs. Xue is a foolish person, she loves her son more and more. When she thinks about the past, she feels uncomfortable. She doesn't know how her sister's family disciplines her children. , no more than the girl from the Lin family has a powerful father behind her, and I don't know when the rumors in the neighborhood will end.After February, Baochai will be fifteen years old. Logically speaking, it is the right time for this girl and Ji to start seeing each other. The attitude couldn't be more obvious, so maybe I have to go back and beg my sister?Anyway, it was Baoyu who stabbed the basket, shouldn't he be asked to clean it up?But when he thought about the child's problems, he hesitated, this kind of man who can't drink it, will not be enough to follow him in the future, who would be willing to give his own girl to be a mother?

She is scratching her heart with all her claws, but she didn't know that another disaster happened to Baoyu, this time it was unusual, it was a life lawsuit, and Jin Chuan, the eldest maid beside Mrs. Wang, jumped into the well and died. .The servants of Jia's mansion were loose-mouthed, and there were rumors that the son-in-law of the second wife's wife belittled the maidservant by his mother's side, causing her to commit suicide in shame and indignation.This forced □□□ maidservant is very unfilial, saying that going out and beating him to death is not wronged him, Mrs. Xue has to believe her and feel annoyed.Unexpectedly, the servants who came back said that they had crossed twice, and that the frivolous one was the concubine's son, who was falsely accusing the son-in-law's head with empty teeth.Among them, Lin Lin always said something with a nose and an eye, and the guards believed it when they heard it.

It's just this matter that others can't scare Baochai.Baoyu was usually innocent and frivolous, and when he saw the maids, he would often clamor for the rouge on his lips. If he was still a hairy child, most people would laugh and say that he was too spoiled.But now his age is over fourteen, people who are more anxious have already started to see each other at this age, he is still chasing around the girl in the back house, and others are embarrassed for him.Besides, Jin Chuan'er was usually playful and lively, so the two of them would hit it off and play together, and sometimes there were some out-of-the-ordinary words and actions that my aunt, Mrs. Wang, bumped into.Baochai knew about this, at the time when Jin Chuan'er was undressed, she made up a set of old clothes and shared them with her, so in her previous life she thought of all sorts of words to reassure her aunt. While playing alone, Chuan slipped and fell into the well by mistake, but in fact, someone has long since revealed the truth.

The children of the Jia family seldom have any serious business, and most of them either stay at home to drink and have fun with concubines all day long, or go outside to gather for banquets in prostitutes. come and go.No one has the heart to tell the mistresses of the ugly words. Only relatives who know a thing or two and pass it over in a hurry can make up for it. There are so many people outside who are waiting to hear their jokes for dinner.

One day Mrs. Wang bumped into her son and was making fun of her close maid. In a moment of anger, she went up and slapped Jin Chuan'er twice, and then asked her mother-in-law to drag her out of the house.There is no one to blame for this matter, which mother is not angry when her child doesn't learn well?Pian Jin Chuan'er saw her eyes and told her to catch her upright, who else would she be if she wasn't used as a raft to kill chickens for monkeys to see.However, Jin Chuan'er is the son of Jia's family. It is said that once he is thrown out, he has no reputation, no way out, and no face. People are small, and once their temper rises, they rush to the mouth of the well.When the old lady heard that there was a girl who seemed to be the eldest daughter called to be fished out of the well, she hurried over and saw that it was Jin Chuan'er, and she cried so hard that the sky was dark and the sky was dark, regretting it, she had to take it back with her swollen eyes to restrain herself Wrap up.The master above heard the news, but sent 20 taels of burnt silver and sent it away, and the woman who sent the message withheld five taels, and the old couple didn't dare to make a sound, so they could only swallow it abruptly Bad breath.

The matter would have ended here, but it happened that the third master Huan, who was born by Aunt Zhao, knew about it. He suddenly found time to sue Jia Zheng's desk, so he had to arrest Baoyu immediately for questioning.It just so happened that early in the morning, the steward of the fifth prince's mansion came to the door and gave Master Jia Er a big shame, saying that Baoyu had kidnapped a privately raised actor, counted the crimes and punished him, Baoyu was beaten again and told him to beat him to death .Mrs. Wang just hugged her son and cried, and when she turned her head, she heard her sister tell Baoyu that Baoyu was like an evil ghost. She hurriedly asked Zhou Rui's family to go out and inquire again. It was ten times worse than what Mrs. Xue told her.In resentment, he arrested a few servants for interrogation, and finally found out that there was a bastard here. His teeth were itchy with hatred, so he made a trick and gave Zhou Rui's family 100 taels of silver to do things. The unworthy beast became Jia Huan.Anyway, because Baoyu got out of this matter, Xue and Lin's family also breathed a sigh of relief. The less people talk about this disaster, the less their own girls will be implicated, and they can't take care of it for a while. Who is called to die unjustly and who is called to die by cheating.

After two or three days like this, the streets suddenly became martial law.The servants of the Xue family who went out to buy came back only to say that the soldiers and horses of the five cities and the guards of Jinyi were dispatched together. Many houses of the court and middle-aged people were surrounded by water. From the master to the house to give birth to a child, a lock was pulled out to separate men and women. Tow it away, I don't know where it will be locked up.For a while, all the houses closed their doors tightly, for fear that escaped criminals would come in and invite Hades, who broke the house.

Xue Pan met the mansion newspaper from Lin Ruhai and brought back the news. Only then did Baochai realize that the ledger book sent up that day was supposed to be here. It looks like tofu. It's strange that so many Zhuangzi's homes have been flooded this year.It is said that Xue’s family is not bad. Most of the villages are located in higher places, so they reduced some of the land. The owner’s family kindly said about the rent-free thing early on. Those low-lying lands have been swept away by the flood. It’s no wonder, isn’t it? He became a refugee and caused chaos everywhere.

The whole family was in fear for a few days, when Xue Pan, who had gone out early one morning, hurried back and shouted for help.Baochai didn't know what he had done, so she brought him some tea and asked, "What's wrong with you? What kind of life was saved?" Xue Pan picked up the teacup and poured it down, wiping his mouth. Said: "Uncle Lin sent a servant to call my family to receive the order. What is the way to receive the order?" Baochai's heart trembled, and he didn't know whether it was good or bad.The general manager first sent someone to invite Mrs. Xue, and then ordered the housekeeper to lead someone to sweep the road outside. The main door was wide open, clear water was poured on the ground, and the table and incense table should be set up. After two quarters of an hour, there were indeed the sound of horseshoes and footsteps. Several soldiers from the Royal Forest Army and the eunuch Dai Quan came in from the main entrance.

When Baochai saw Dai Quan, she hurriedly lowered her head and poked her brother on the back. Xue Pan hurriedly bowed his hands and bowed several times in a row, and then the big housekeeper saw the opportunity and stuffed his purse over.The eunuch crushed it in his hands, and fluttered a few of them, knowing that they were bank notes, he smiled and said, "Is this the person who came after Ziwei Sheren?" Mrs. Xue and Baochai couldn't answer, only the housekeeper On behalf of him, he replied: "Master Labor Minister intervened, this is the great-great-grandson of Ziwei Sheren."

Dai Quan squinted his eyes for a while and said "oh" suddenly: "Our family vaguely remembers that your eldest girl was selected as a servant in the palace last year? The empress said that you are very silent about filial piety. Your Majesty Good feng shui, both children and children." This was said to Mrs. Xue, and the little old lady shivered in a hurry.At this moment, the kung fu incense burner was lit, everyone in the Xue family divided Zhao Mu and bowed down as usual, Dai Quan took out a scroll of white jacquard brocade from the brocade box and read it out, Mrs Xue and Xue Pan were confused Here, only Baochai understands that her family has gone ashore in vain, and has fallen into the eyes of the superiors.

First of all, he praised Xue's ancestors for their virtue of distributing wealth, being loyal to the emperor, which can be commended, and then saying that Mrs. Xue was chaste and taught her children well. Pancai has dry goods - "...there is a son of the Xue family, who is named Pan, and tomorrow people are separated, and they understand the meaning of the past and the present. If you are rich, you can be safe, and if you are expensive, you can be frugal... Therefore, it is allowed to follow the name of 'Ziwei Sheren', Give Jinshi the first birth, enroll in the Ministry of Rites..." After Lin Lin always had a long string of words, no one in Xue's family cared to continue listening, even though they were still kneeling honestly, their eyebrows and eyes didn't know where they were flying.Dai Quan read it for a long time before he finished it, and he smiled to make everyone get up, and he bent slightly to Mrs. Xue and said, "Congratulations to Mrs. An, there are still many good days ahead, hurry up and thank you. "

There is an example in the official department of this dynasty: from the third grade, the grandmother, mother, and wife are each given to Shuren.From the four ranks, the mother and wife are each given to Gongren.From the fifth grade, mother and wife, each entrusted to Yiren.From the sixth grade, mother and wife, he was granted to Anren.Xue Pan has no real job for the time being, Ziwei Sheren is just a name, who dares to let him write the imperial edict, isn't that just waiting for a joke?Therefore, Dai Quan calling Mrs. Xue an old Ann is just a compliment.

At that time, Xue's family knelt and saluted in the direction of the imperial city again, and when they got up again, they were almost overflowing with joy.Mrs. Xue hurriedly called the second steward to open the warehouse to pick up a treasure from the previous dynasty as a gift to Dai Quan. It was a mother-of-pearl the size of a baby's fist and twelve beads the size of fingernails. "Gululu" rolled to the side of the mother-of-pearl and saved them, not to mention the value, but all of them are pure white, round, bright and restrained, which makes people happy to see them.Dai Quan took the box and ordered the little eunuch who was following to hold it, smiled and said some auspicious words, taking advantage of the kung fu, the butler stuffed every soldier with a money purse, and then respectfully sent the angel out the door.

The whole family was happy after closing the door. Mrs. Xue clasped her hands together and bowed to the sky several times. She didn't know whether she should go to the head of the family first to put incense on the stick or give the reward to the servants first.Baochai hurriedly gave her brother to sigh, and asked her mother-in-law to help her back to the main courtyard and rest.Here I looked at the servants who were full of joy in the courtyard, and said indifferently: "It's a good day today, the servants will reward you with three months of silver, and there is still work waiting for you." Only their family had a happy event, and they had to think of a good reason to prevaricate it.

Ask Baochai to say that the emperor is too stingy. My brother was originally doing odd jobs with Uncle Lin Ruhailin in the yamen of the Ministry of Rites. This edict is nothing more than giving him an official title.The only advantage is that you don't have to think about what will happen later, and the Xue family doesn't plan to call Xue Pan an official at this moment, so it doesn't matter if it's Jinshi or not.Because he is a small sesame official, he doesn't need to make a special trip to see him to pay his respects, he only needs to bow down when delivering the inner minister. Mrs. Xue ordered someone to collect the box containing the will and put it in front of Master Xue's memorial tablet, so that he can confess there Have fun at the same time.Immediately afterwards, well-informed relatives sent people to the door one after another to present congratulatory gifts and congratulations.Xue Pan asked Ti Liu to come out to deal with it again, and the tossing around did not stop until it was dark.

According to Aunt Xue's meaning, it would take three or five days of running water mats to fulfill her wish. Such an entire Xue family would probably make half of the capital hate to death.Ask Baochai to stop him for talking and talking, and only say that it is difficult for so many people in Beijing now, and it is difficult to hold a happy event at this time.It's fine if others are silent at this point, but if someone is promoted in the future, it's easier to clean up a small official in the Ministry of Rites than to eat melon seeds.Regardless of whether it was true or not, Mrs. Xue was taken aback for a while, so she had to reluctantly send her mother-in-law to run around the capital and spent a lot of money in various temples around the capital to feel comfortable.

Jin Yiwei locked up people in Beijing every day, and it took three to five days before he disappeared.As soon as Baochai made up his mind, he hurriedly urged Xue Pan to ask Lin Ruhai, saying that the elders of Qingliu Pavilion had redeemed the IOUs left in the House of Internal Affairs, and Xue and Lin's family hurriedly followed and returned the owed money. If relatives come to ask, they only tell people that they exchanged money for the name, but they can cover it up.

As a result, there was an imperial decree to make the Lin family's daughter a county head, even though there was no official seal, it also showed the meaning of the above.Originally, Lin Ruhai was only the second rank, and his girl could not reach the position of the county magistrate, but if he was promoted to his official position because of the repayment of money, it would appear that the imperial court was using the official position for business, and both the ancestors of the Lin family and the late Mrs. Lin were conferred early. However, I had to tell Daiyu to eat this benefit. Anyway, a girl with a good name, who would want to provoke the Minister of Rites?Don't look at the fact that you don't need the Ministry of Rites except to get a scholar. If the old man in the family is old, the Ministry of Rites will help you to give him a posthumous title. If you are not a big person, it is enough for your family to make people behind you laugh for a hundred years. The sperm of an official can figure out the twists and turns here.

With Xue and Lin's family taking advantage of it, all of a sudden, especially the nobles with titles in their families, they all flocked to the Ministry of Internal Affairs to pay back the money, and all of them were rewarded by the emperor, or sealed as wives and sons. , or pursue ancestors.With this money, the national treasury is finally full of confidence, the relief that should be given, and the investigation that should be investigated, it seems that everyone has become the master of the blue sky.

In August, the floods in the south of the Yangtze River gradually subsided, and the refugees returned to their hometowns to register again, and the theft and looting cases in various places had just subsided, and Beijing and central Beijing had long been peaceful and prosperous again.After all, the chaos was settled, and the relatives all got the benefits of repaying the money before. When Mrs. Jia was happy, she wanted to gather her granddaughters to have fun together. She only invited the female family members to the Grand View Garden to have a drink and listen to a play. one day.The old man spoke in person, Xue and Lin's family accepted the post and agreed to go to Jia's house together when the day came.

Xue Pan sent Mrs. Xue and Baochai to the gate of Rongguo Mansion, repeatedly told him to walk around the Baoyu, and looked up just in time to see Lin Ruhai who was sending his daughter over.Xue Pan Pi Dian Pi Dian went up to say hello, Lin Ru Hai joked a few words, and only said that he kowtowed to Jia Mu and wanted to take him out for a walk.Xue Da is an idiot, and he can't wait, he sent his mother and sister inside first, then followed him to the outer courtyard to meet Jia Amnesty and Jia Zheng, and then he came out and turned towards the west of the city.

Not to mention what Xue Pan did when he went out, but on Jia Mu's side, he exchanged money for fun and went out to set up a table of noodles. He also called the little opera singers he bought when he was visiting relatives in Yuanchun to dress up and wait for them. The girls from relatives came together, shouting for the banquet to begin.Jia Mu sat at the top, Daiyu sat next to her left hand, and the right was empty, followed by Mrs. Xing and Wang.Baochai is next to Daiyu, Baoqin is below, and Shi Xiangyun, the eldest sister of the historian, is on the right.

Since the last time Shi Xiangyun went back in a fit of temper, this was the first time he saw Daiyu and Baochai in Jia's house, with embarrassing faces, he turned all the way to talk to Yingchun Tanchun behind her, Xichun is also grown up now, pursing her lips Listen to it and enjoy it with a teacup.The sisters are now living in the Grand View Garden, and they are more harmonious with each other. When they have nothing to do, they gather together to enjoy flowers or play chess. It is a pity that the relatives and girls are not here. This time we met more intimately than before. very.

The crowd coaxed Mrs. Jia to order a few very lively plays. On the stage, the ladies were chatting and laughing. Mrs. Xing and Mrs. Wang sat down after serving the dishes for Mrs. Jia. He couldn't close his mouth from ear to ear, pointed at her and called out "monkey".As soon as "Havoc in Heaven" went on, a few more small actors were dressed up and sang "Si Fan". When I saw Sister Feng, I suddenly laughed, and the others laughed too. They just laughed and didn't say anything. Ask Baochai to hold her arm and say, "What's the name of this little opera girl? Seeing that Mian Shan likes it, I beg the old lady to give her to my house to raise and play with."

Jia Mu nodded and said, "I'll give it to you." Then she asked the little opera singer to kowtow to Baochai, and handed it over to Bailu to lead it to Xue's servants.

The author has something to say: update so much first, and start updating normally the day after tomorrow.

Chapter 32 has been completed and revised, and the next chapter will be updated.

The Guiyou version is a copy of "Dream of Red Mansions" originally held by He Lili (pseudonym) with red-letter comments. According to the comments in the book, the book was written in the year of Guiyou, so the publisher of the content of this book named it Guiyou Book.The cover of the Guiyou edition. The original title of the book is "Wu's Stone Story Addition and Deletion Trial Commentary", and the text content of its 67th chapter and 81st to 108th chapters have been announced.

"Wu's Stone Records Addition and Deletion Trial Commentary", a copy of the Stone Records with Zhu Zhu, the holder of the book is He Lili (pseudonym).He Lili is from Fuyang, Anhui. Regarding the origin of the Guiyou book, according to him: "My grandfather is from Shanxi. This book was given to his grandmother by a wounded man when my grandfather was a military doctor on a certain battlefield in Shanxi before liberation. My grandmother was an accompanying nurse. , it should be an overwritten copy from the period of the Republic of China. I don’t know if it was restored from memory or copied directly.” This book is divided into 12 volumes, each with nine chapters, a total of 108 chapters.The title of the cover is: "Wu's Shishi Ji Addition and Deletion Trial Commentary".This general edition of this book contains a large number of Zhu Zhu, some of which are not found in other ancient stone records.Among the inscribed comments, some of them are signed "Watou", "Tangcun" and so on.

In addition to the comments, there are also many differences between the chapters and the main text of the first 80 chapters of this book and the current version.Among them, there is a comment at the end of the 108th chapter: "This book has come to an end, and the whole book has been copied. Meicun's long-cherished wish has been fulfilled, and my entrustment has been fulfilled. If there is something wrong, I will add or delete it later. Although it is not very good, It is also dedicated, so I have no regrets." According to this comment, referring to the naming methods of other ancient books of Shi Shi Ji, Liu Junjun (one of the main publishers of this book) named this book "Gui You Ben Shi Shi Ji". (Note: Here, the year of Guiyou should be 1693, the year of Zhiben Jiaxu should be 1694, and Wumei Village died in 1672.)

The biggest advantage of the Guiyou version is that the plot ending and structural context are highly consistent with the first 80 chapters, but the disadvantage is that the writing is rough and the style of writing is different from the first 80 chapters.There are two main reasons: first, this book belongs to an early manuscript, and the writing has not been fully polished; Some content has been removed.

Nevertheless, some important scenes mentioned in the first 80 chapters of the commentary are "Lin Daiyu's boring chants, Zhen Baoyu giving jade, Wei Ruolan shooting at the garden, Miaoyu submitting at the Guazhou Ferry, Xue Baochai's borrowed words containing irony, Wang Xifeng knows his fate and is a strong hero" The other plots have been confirmed in the last 28 chapters of "The Story of the Stone in Guiyou", which is an important evidence that this book is the original manuscript of "Dream of Red Mansions".In addition, the content of the last 28 chapters of this book alludes to some real events in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties, which may be the main reason why the author cut off the last 28 chapters and only passed on the first 80 chapters.

癸酉本最早是在2008年8月31日出现在网上的,由刘俊俊将何莉莉誊录的后28回内容进行整理分段、校正标点,在各大红楼论坛上发布并宣传。2013年,何莉莉、刘俊俊将发布的《癸酉本石头记》后28回内容再次修订完善,于2014年3月完成《癸酉本石头记》后28回的首次出版发行。

In the spring of 2015, the collector finally provided photocopies of the full text of the transcript of "Wu's Stone Records Addition, Deletion, and Commentary". Wu Xuesong, through patient collation and correction, realized the holographic collation of the original text of the transcript, which contributed to the "Guiyou Version of Stone Records" The second edition of the last 28 chapters was published.

In November 2015, the last 11 chapters of "Wu's Stone Story Addition and Deletion Trial Review" were published as a book and sold online.

At the end of the 108th chapter of this book, there is a comment: "This is the end of the book, and the whole book has been copied. Meicun's long-cherished wish has been fulfilled, and my entrustment has been fulfilled. If there is something wrong, I will add or delete it later. Although it is not very good, It is also dedicated, so I have no regrets." According to this comment, referring to the naming methods of other ancient editions of Shitouji, Liu Junjun named this edition Guiyou edition.Combined with Cao Xueqin's birth and death years, the Guiyou year in this comment should be 1753, while the Jiaxu version was completed in 1754, so it can be judged that the mother version of this book was born one year earlier than the Jiaxu version.
